Chief Constable to retire

Sir Norman Bettison is to retire as Chief Constable of West Yorkshire Police
after controversy over his role in the Hillsborough tragedy. A complaint was made to police watchdog that he had supplied misleading information after the disaster.

Bettison 'should be stripped of his knighthood'

Trevor Hicks from Keighley lost two daughters at the Hillsborough tragedy. He's given his reaction of Sir Norman Bettison's retirement, calling for him to lose his knighthood.

We are glad he's realised his position is untenable. However I'm determined that he doesn't escape his just deserts. I'll make sure he's stripped of his knighthood and his fellowship of Liverpool University. He should leave with nothing, like he did the families.
